Yu Shaoxie looked at him silently.
After a long time of deliberation, he finally asked, "Rong'er, are you okay?"
Xiao Rong blinked lightly, seemingly not understanding where Yu Shaoxie's question came from: "Why am I not okay?"
The more he said this, the more unsure Yu Shaoxie felt. He licked his lower lip nervously and said, "It is true that the king was impulsive in this matter, but in the final analysis, it is the Xianbei people who are too hateful. They dug up the graves of the king's parents. The Xianbei people are worthy of death. The king was just dragged into it. If you are angry, just express it. Don't hold it in. No one will blame you. We are just like you. We are also angry."
Xiao Rong looked at Yu Shaoxie, his expression changed slightly. Yu Shaoxie could not describe what the change was, but all of a sudden, the calmness and indifference on Xiao Rong's face disappeared, and he seemed to have returned to the time when Qu Yunmie was still asleep.
Xiao Rong: "But I'm different from you."
Yu Shaoxie was stunned for a moment, and he said, "I know that you two have a closer relationship."
Xiao Rong shook his head: "Not this."
Yu Shaoxie blinked, "You mean, you are more loyal to the king?"
Xiao Rong still shook his head.
Yu Shaoxie was stunned again. He couldn't help but lower his voice and asked tentatively: "So you want to say that the king was in danger, and you knew about this in advance?"
Xiao Rong chuckled and said, "Don't guess, you can't guess it."
Yu Shaoxie pursed his lips. He really stopped guessing because it was meaningless to guess. What happened between Xiao Rong and Qu Yunmie was not something he could interfere with. He was just a little worried.
"Rong'er, I came to the Zhenbei Army earlier than you. You may not be able to notice the changes in the king, but I saw with my own eyes that you changed him from a reckless man to what he is now. No one can tolerate his parents being humiliated. You can blame the king and be angry with him, but... don't give up on him. The Zhenbei Army cannot do without the king or you at this point. I really don't want to see the two of you turn against each other because of a Xianbei vicious scheme."
Xiao Rong: "Don't worry, it won't happen."
Yu Shaoxie looked at him suspiciously: "Really?"
Xiao Rong smiled: "Yes, really."
Another quarter of an hour later, Xiao Rong came out from here and went to his own tent to sleep. Not long after he lay down, Jian Qiao came out from the king's tent with a basin of dirty water. He poured the dirty water at a place and then walked quickly towards Yu Shaoxie.
On the other side, Zhang Biezhi also ran out stealthily.
The three of them stood together, and Jian Qiao anxiously asked Yu Shaoxie: "How is it?"
Zhang Biezhi looked at him nervously as well.
Under the anxious and expectant gazes of the two, Yu Shaoxie shook his head heavily: "Not very good, very angry, stay away from them from now on, especially when they are together, don't get close to them."
Jian Qiao: “…………”
Zhang Biezhi nodded silently: "That makes sense. Mr. Xiao has a bad temper and likes to hold grudges. This is going to be a tough time for the King."
Jian Qiao looked at him, but he couldn't refute Zhang Biezhi, so he had to look at Yu Shaoxie again: "But, if we let them make a fuss, will anything happen?"
After hearing what Jian Qiao said, Yu Shaoxie just laughed and said, "I hope that as you said, they can quarrel. It's a good thing if they can quarrel. What's scary is that they can't quarrel. Just think about it, if Rong'er is still unwilling to forgive the king after his injury is healed, what will happen then?"
Jian Qiao imagined it for a moment, and then his whole face became bitter.
Zhang Biezhi did not do so. He was just very confused by Yu Shaoxie's words: "Forgive the king? What did the king do wrong that requires Mr. Xiao to forgive him? You are saying that it seems as if the king has done something wrong to Mr. Xiao."
When he asked this question, the other two were stunned.
Uh, it seems so.
But for some reason, they all felt that the word "forgiveness" was appropriate, and they all agreed that the other party, the king, should think so as well. …………
After Qu Yunmie woke up, he first drank three bowls of medicine, then ate two bowls of rice, and allowed the military doctor and Agusega to treat him. In the end, they came to the conclusion that his vitality was seriously damaged, but his life was no longer in danger.
After the military doctor wrote the prescription and changed the medicine for Qu Yunmie, he left. Agusega stayed here and used the Buteu tribe's method to massage Qu Yunmie's muscles and bones. He lay in bed for five days, during which time he almost didn't eat or drink, and he had no strength left in his body.
Agusega pressed his arm while watching his face. After a while, she lowered her eyes and said calmly, "You now remind me of when you were a kid. You knew you shouldn't fight but you still fought. You came back injured without saying a word. Gao Xunzhi called you a stubborn donkey and I called you a stupid bird. Do you know why we both call you that?"
Qu Yunmie didn't say anything.
Aguseka answered on his own: "Because you make us angry, you are too troublesome, but we have no other choice. You are the child of Qu Yue and Ishtar. We must take care of you and raise you as our own child. You are the responsibility of Gao Xunzhi and me, but you are not Xiao Rong's responsibility."
Agusega paused for a moment because she suddenly felt the arm she was holding tense.
After a moment, she continued to massage Qu Yunmie, and her words were still ruthless: "I don't know what happened between you and Xiao Rong, but I advise you not to insist on meaningless things like you did in the past. It doesn't matter whether you are right or wrong. What matters is that you have saddened someone who has no responsibility for you at all."
Qu Yunmie still had his head down, and at this time, Agusega let him go. Qu Yunmie raised his head and saw Agusega looking at him with confusion.
"I know you feel wronged, and I know you are sad. This is not the scene you want to see, nor is it the reunion you expected. But things have already happened. Don't make it worse."
Qu Yunmie looked at Agusega and finally asked her a question in a hoarse voice.
"Rou, how do I look?"
Agusega was silent for a moment, then replied, "It's ugly. Senwan looks like a dying man."
Even when he was unconscious it was better than now.
However, after hearing this, Qu Yunmie did not react at all. He just nodded randomly and said, "I will go find him when I feel better."
Maybe if he looked better, Xiao Rong would hate him less.
After waking up, Xiao Rong got up and read the military reports of the past few days. After the Xianbei people failed to pursue them that day, they quickly retreated. Logically speaking, they should have made a concerted effort in the past few days, taking advantage of Qu Yunmie's illness and killing him, and directly attacking the Zhenbei Army. While Qu Yunmie's life and death were uncertain, they should have directly defeated the Zhenbei Army that had lost its main general and whose morale was low.
But they didn't. They were even as quiet as chickens. Every day, apart from sending a few thousand people to fight with the Zhenbei Army, they kept sending scouts to gather information.
Xiao Rong understood that they were waiting.
They will wait until the news of Qu Yunmie's death is confirmed before they will lead their troops to attack.
